Professor's Point of View

After having taught the Destinos series for the past several years, I can honestly say that it is one of the best, if not the best, programs available to learn Spanish. However, it does require absolute time commitment on the part of the student. The materials are well integrated and provide an excellent tool for learning language and culture. I definitely recommend it.
